The Match ( Daniel Sturridge fan fic )

Ch 3 Eye's

"I'm scoring a couple goal's today baby boy,  you just watch." Daniel said this to me with so much confidence... I suppose he should have a good amount of confidence, after all he is Liverpool's striker. "Okay okay we'll see how it goes init." Jordan Ibe said this,  looked at me and just chuckled. My name is Daniel Sturridge and I am a striker for my club Liverpool. As all of my team mate's and I had a talk with our captain Steven Gerard, we all felt ready to take our places on the pitch. When it was time, we all ran out onto the pitch. We heard nothing but screaming and shouting fans chanting and singing our song. Red or dead you'll never walk alone ! That's all I heard when I walked out into the stadium. This made me realise how much I love the job I do. All eyes on us . All my team mates wife's and girlfriend's here... nobody for me though... I know it sound's really sad haha, but it would be nice to look into the crowd and see someone cheering you on with you and them sharing a special connection with eachother. " Daniel " Raheem called after me after seeing that I was in a bit of a daze. " yeah yeah, you cool bro ? " I asked him trying to convince him that everything was fine... that obviously failed because he then asked me " what's up bro, you seem like your mind isnt on the game ? " " nah nah I'm cool man I'm good " " what's up man " Raheem looked at me saying this with concern. " it's nothing really man... just seeing all of you guys here and then you have your girlfriends and wife's here to support you all. I dont have anyone, seeing you guy's in the match waving at your wife's and girlfriends... sometimes even children, it get's to me realising I cant do that. " Raheem was looking at me very amused when I said this to him. " Fam " " lol what ? " " it sounds like you want to settle down still " when he said this I was taken aback. I was never really the settling down type, I liked to be able to do different things by myself and with different people. Was this really what I was starting to feel. I think I need to talk to my heavenly father more about this later. " you really think so " " I know so. Look we're in a huge stadium about to play a game against crystal palace. There are hundreds of women in here that support our club and most of all support you. Why dont you look out during the game at who you think could be a preson you would date or even just want to get to know."  I looked at Raheem thinking he was crazy... but to be truthfully honest, he kind of had a point.  " alright I'll look but I dont think Im gonna find anything different than what we usually see in this stadium. "

So we're at half time now and I have managed to score 3 goals against crystal palace. The score was 1-3 to us. Get innnn . Also I have been thinking about what Raheem said earlier but I just dont think im going to find anybody here.

So the game started again and Raheem scored a goal against crystal palace, Jourdan Henderson got a yellow card for ' tripping up a player from the other team ' yeah right, the ref didnt like us anyway. As we were about to start the game again I looked up in the crowd as I usually do in games like this... but this time I saw a women get up that looked about the age of 23. I think she must have been going to the toilet or to get more snacks but all I could think about was just how captivating she was. She was short, about 5"1 5"2 maybe. Wavy dark brown hair that reached her mid back, Dark brown eyes I could stare into all day and get lost in emotions,  with a caramel skin tone. I couldn't take my eyes off of her she was physicaly and mentally captivating.  She then smiled at a joke her friend must have told her. Her smile made my heart clench and race. I've never seen somebody so beautiful. The only question is...who is she, and that was something I was going to find out !

I finally turned around and got my head back in the game but with her beautiful face that I could never forget in the back of my mind.
